So many animals and birds free to come and go. Loved this. Many aviaries had free flight, good displays and caring staff. Grounds clean and tidy. Dragons running around everywhere and tawny frogmouths asleep in the trees. Loved it.

Myself and my friend booked in a walking tour at the centre - We listened to some beautiful Dreamtime stories associated with the creation of Jellurgal, and even other parts of QLD & NSW, that we should of learnt a long time ago. My favourite stories were about the creation of Jellurgal (Burleigh Headland) and the creation of Wollumbin (Mount Warning) - thank you so much for sharing these stories, that I can now share with others :)

The national park at Burleigh Heads is a treasure...it over looks the the ocean and puts you in touch with wildlife and nature. There are 2 main walking tracks - the lower track is easy and only takes about 15 mins to reach the other end, which is the Tallebudgera creek bridge, which you can then go for a swim in the creek. The upper track is a bit more challenging and hilly but worth it for the views at the top. It also ends at the same place as the lower track. You can walk one way on the lower track and come back on the upper so you cover both tracks. There are lots of vantage points along the way to watch the surfers catch waves or watch boats go across the breakers into the creek. Many bush turkeys make their homes in the park as well as many lizards and i have also spotted an echidna - so amazing. Its a nice stroll up from the village of Burleigh. Many people use it as their running route.

A family member was married here last Saturday (thankfully after the rain earlier in the week had cleared) The grass was lovely and green, and the backdrop of the grass, rocks and ocean was perfect. A lovely park used by so many people at all hours every day, and the sunsets here are magical, with views to Surfers Paradise.

Australia’s Champion Brewery right on your doorstep. Black Hops have two locations on the Gold Coast, their original brewery and taproom in Burleigh (HQ) and their new production brewery and taproom in Biggera Waters (Black Hops II). Black Hops started as a simple idea over a beer with 3 good mates Dan, Eddie and Govs. That lead to the first Black Hops beer, the Eggnog Stout. Their award-winning beers are unpasteurised and made with no preservatives. Each Taproom has a selection of 14 beers on tap, so there's sure to be a beer for every palate. BREWERY TOURS The Taproom team can give you a free brewery tour at anytime if the brewery isn’t too busy. Or why not book a $30 V.I.P Tour on the first Saturday of each month at 2pm at HQ or 4pm at BHII. Black Hops II has food trucks onsite Friday - Sunday. Both locations are family and dog friendly. Black Hops HQ – 15 Gardenia Grove, Burleigh Heads Opening Hours: Wednesday - Friday 12-7pm, Saturday - Sunday 12-6pm. Black Hops II – 671 Pin
Been to Black Hops tap room a couple of times now, great both times. Love the eggnog stout on tap as did the rest of my family. Cider was tasty too for non-beer drinkers. Will return.
